The Free Speech Coalition, the adult industry trade association, has named Hustler founder and publisher Larry Flynt as the recipient of its annual Legacy Award, to be presented at the 2009 FSC Awards in Los Angeles on November 14.
Hustler Magazine celebrated its 35th birthday this year in July with a special anniversary issue and a VIP birthday bash. Flynt might just be the best friend the First Amendment has ever had, and he's certainly helped pave the way for much of modern adult entertainment as we now know it. And all those porn parodies flooding the market? Flynt paved the way for that, too, winning a landmark Supreme Court case in 1988 that helped establish the right to lampoon public figures and make pornified parodies. He also made news this year, tongue planted firmly in cheek, when he and Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis asked Congress for a government $5 billion bailout of the porn industry.
The FSC Awards will be presented at The Bada-Bing Bailout Bash, an industry-only annual event Saturday Nov. 14, at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles.
